Offline installation files needed

[dzanta]

I have a military client who needs to install and activate Trueview 2025 on a remote computer that has no access to the WWW or the public domain.

The installation files still want to ping the web when installing...

I need to install/activate it completely offline...

Does anyone have ideas?

[pendean]

No option. They will need to acquire software from a different vendor without the need to 'call home'.

You can get the offline installers:

But the activation .. as Pendean said .. can't be done. Was hoping they would come up with a grey area for the military here after they did the 30 days required access.

Hello @dzanta ,

just tried and I could install DWG TrueView 2025 in "offline mode".

And I could also open dwg files without "activation". @mdavis22569 Have I overlooked something ?

Try this.. move the original unextract installer to the new machine .. but in the c:\download folder. Extract it leaving it all there.

On the starting of the install right click and click the run as admin.

Looks good though to me ... any error messages?

[m_latz]

No error messages. I tested this on a virtual machine with definitely no internet access.

What I have not yet tested is "run in silent mode", but I assume it is the same installer as for all products, so it should also work.

regards

If not issues, then I'd keep doing what you did.

Any issues, then move the Create install file you got to the individual machines.  But otherwise nothing jumped out in the video.

If using the offline installers, once installed can you use the Sign In feature (when internet is restored) rather than the licensing service? I have a computer that requires offline install but the version we used (not the ones you linked) uses the licensing service and even after following the instructions from Autodesk on how to remove that, it still returns a licensing error and shuts down rather than let me sign-in.

The reason sign-in is needed is because it is an educational/student subscription and not used in a commercial setting and I do not have a licensing server/file.

So I'm trying to determine if the offline files you linked will allow sign-in rather than absolutely require the licensing service approach.

yes setup needs to be ran as administrator or y2ou may get error. i just downloaded 2027 and installed to an online and an offline computer via method in video above
